Bharkhama Trailer Review: Shravan Sagar Kalyan & Anjali Raghav Shines In A Culturally Rich Rajasthani Film

Positive Points

The most striking feature of the promo is its visual appeal. The cinematography is beautiful and brings out the spirit of Rajasthan right from deserts and forts to traditional lifestyle. Folk music, in particular shehnai and drums used is really nice to give authentic flavor to the narrative and takes the viewer into the film's world. The performances of Shravan Sagar and Anjali Raghav playing the lead are equally promising as they bring out the simple characters soaked in the culture of that region.

Another major high point is the connection of the film with Rajasthani literature. When there is a deficit of good regional cinema, Bharkhama brings a successful piece of Rajasthani literature onto the big screen, catering to an audience that values cultural representation.

Negative Points

While the trailer is a visual spectacle, it hardly reveals the depth of the story. With this film and its cultural aspects, there could be a tendency to bank too heavily on the visual elements without developing a strong story and characters. Another challenge the movie will have to deal with is a subject that people outside Rajasthan may not commonly relate to, or even among the Tier-I audience in general.

Overall Verdict 

Bharkhama can be the landfall in Rajasthani cinema. The promotional video of this film regarding cultural preservation and literature is sure to strike a chord in the audience, and it will go strong amongst the regional audience. However, the film has to balance out its cultural components with a strong storyline if it is to make it through to bigger recognition.
